Why Investing
in WIRELESS is
WORTHWHILE
Wireless security
advantages include
faster installation,
lower costs, less site
disruption and use
when hardwire isn't
feasible. But there
have historically
been caveats.
See how legacy
limitations are being
overcome.

G
o where the pros go. Today,
we see a large surge in the DIY
market for wireless alarm systems
and sensors. Suddenly,
it's anyone's game to self-install one of those
wireless alarm systems, many having no clue of
what actually comprises it. Th e public in general
thinks the concept of wireless alarm systems
is something new, oblivious that the professional
security industry has been developing and installing
them for almost 50 years.
It is true that technology has created some
moderately impressive, simple wireless alarm
systems. Th ey are economical for sure. But
would you trust your life or your family's lives
and property to their questionable performance?
With the emergence of the DIY alarm market
at least one interesting market has evolved. It is
DIFM (do it for me), as many DIYers have high
self-installation expectations but poor results.
Wireless alarm systems and accompanying
sensors have always been a tease for the professional
alarm dealer. Especially in retrofi t installations,
it is always easier to mount a sensor and
transmitter in minutes rather than taking hours
to hardwire the same device. Th e question still
remains, does the wireless device provide the
same level of security as hardwiring? Let's examine
where the wireless market is today.

One wireless security products company that
has performed well for security professionals is
Inovonics. For more than 30 years, this manufacturer
has provided professional-grade wireless
security devices for every application level,
be it residential or large offi ce buildings. Th e
devices are either UL Listed or UL Certifi ed,
meeting life-safety requirements for systems
such as smoke detection. Transmission ranges
can be from 25,000 to 40,000 square feet for
long-range devices. Flexibility and security in
